Here are some of the other highlights from our favorite players' social media over the past week ...
There's no getting around the cold weather in certain Major League cities at the beginning of the season, but this week brought some especially frigid conditions. The Pirates and Twins managed to play a game in the snow but the Mets and Phillies weren't so fortunate. Tuesday's game at Citi Field was postponed thanks to a healthy amount of snow. Luckily, the players still found a way to enjoy themselves.
The Phillies got in on the fun as well:

There are so many wonderful Minor League team names across the 30 farm systems in baseball -- players have the opportunity to play for teams like the Rumble Ponies, Jumbo Shrimp and the Lugnuts, among countless others. It appears that Reds prospect Taylor Trammell is very excited to play for the Daytona Tortugas:
